No, ladies and gentleman of the internet your eyes do not deceive you, I am indeed another Gamer trying to start a blog. This fact surely begs the question....What makes me different from all the other glillions of gamers trying to get noticed? The answer lies largely in the advantages and disadvantages I face as a gamer. Both of these stem from my diagnosis....yes...everyone has one. Since birth, I have had to contend with Cerebral Palsy. This can be a blessing and a curse...we may get to more on that later. For now its important to keep in mind that this effects my perception of everything from game mechanics and menu presentation, to narrative and art design.
Yes, I know that menu and art design can be one in the same but my own personal opinion is that they are not always so....possibly we will be covering that In later detail as well.
For those of you who are worried that this page will turn into a giant soap box with disability front and center...you need not worry. Here I am first and foremost a Gamer who intends to talk about everything from the future of episodic gaming to how the monetization of you tube needs to change. Some basic facts before I roll....
I was born a Nintendo Kid. My parents had an Atari 2600...by the time I was aware of it that dinosaur was already headed skyward...
I'm a sucker for narrative adventure games...if your looking for particular examples I would direct you to anything tell tale has made this century.
I also do like some old school point and clicks like mist but there are versions since can sometimes make them hard to live with.
So I guess that's enough for now...for the those who got through this introduction to me, thank you for reading and we will talk again soon!
